Regional councillor Steve Parish and local councillors Jim McMaster and Frank Schaper called for a reduction in the regional council ranks at last week's Ajax council meeting. Herrema, however, wants Ajax to mind its own business. "If Steve wants to get a motion at our council, he can do it," Herrema said. "But a local council telling regiorfal council to do it -we're not going to be dictated to by some part-time councillors." Oshawa, with less than 29 per cent of the region's population, has 11 of the council's 32 members (more than 34 per cent) . Ajax is only represented by three mem- bers. Herrema admitted Oshawa and the northern parts of the region are "over -represented" at regional council but said he found it "ironic' that Ajax would be pushing for change, noting the town has already been awarded an extra seat (one of only two changes to the seat count since the advent of regional government 1974) and has been demanding another increase to its three-member total. Herrema said the proposed GTA review process would be an appro- priate forum to discuss the reduc- tion of council seats. photo by Jan Lynch FUN AT THE BEACH: Craig Willoughby, 20 months, took time out from feeding the geese to enjoy the slide at the Liverpool Road Beach with grandma jean Willoughby.

"I doubt the province or the Town of Pickering will take it to court," Wiseman prophesized. "All the legal advice I've been given says we couldn't win." Hough owns a Queens Charter, an 1843 docu- ment that gives him the rights to property on or under the waters of the bay. The charter came in the deal when he bought the Pickering Harbor Company in 1962 and allows him to charge rent to rival marina owners for their docks, or for any floating restaurant or boat launch. After a nearly 20 -year dispute between Hough and Pickering, the two sides have reached a agreement that will likely keep the matter out of court. That agreement, however, is about adher- ing to planning and zon- ing guidelines and may include transferring unof- ficial stewardship of the bay in exchange for development rights. The authority of the charter itself, Pickering Mayor Wayne Arthurs said recently, is not being questioned.

Boyd's decision is expected sometime this year, Wiseman said, not- ing it will be "sooner rather than later." WILDWOOD FORD SALES LTD.

Case in point; the three Durham West candidates who will be butting heads in two months in a provin- cial election - pined forces - an admitted "unusual step" - to urge the District Health Council (DHC) to approve its acute care study. In a letter, adressed to health council chairman Gerry Blake and signed by MPP Jim Wiseman (NDP), Liberal candidate Joe Wiseman and Progressive Conservative candidate Janet Ecker, the candidates reminded the council of the growth of the Ajax -Pickering area and stated the hospital will be "unable to meet our communities' needs" if the province doesn't fund that growth. The letter was dated Feb. 22. Later that same day, the health council relea6ed its $375,000 doc- ument, recommending the expansion of the hospital - now facing bed closures and staff layoffs because of a provincial funding freeze - into a full service facility serving western Durham.

"There will have to be cuts everywhere. And it won't be a little; it'll prob- ably be a lot." The NDP MPP said business shouldn't be fooled by the federal budget, which cut 45,000 civil services jobs and took a bite out of the bur- geoning federal deficit, because the provinces - especially Ontario - were handed the burden of responsibilities. "They just off-loaded the cuts onto us ... so we have some really tough choices to make to achieve a zero budget and reduce the deficit." Ontario was the hard- est hit by the federal budget, Wiseman claimed, pointing out the province makes up about 38 per cent of Canada's population yet absorbed 54 per cent of the budget cuts. "'That's rather signifi- cant and discriminatory against Ontario. We pay $52 billion in taxes but now we'll be getting about $30 billion back in services, or less," he explained. "There's going to be more money sucked out of Ontario than the rest of the coun- try and that will make it very difficult for Ontario businesses to function." Premier Bob Rae has been keeping mum about where the cuts might fall in the provin- cial budget but Wiseman said it will hard to find an appropriate area, noting education is "at the breaking point" and health care is already stretched to the limit. "Anyone who gets money from the provin- cial government better just tighten their belt." Durham Regional Chairman Gary Herrema said he hopes Queen's Park doesn't go tit-for-tat with Ottawa and "down- load" cuts to the regional level when the provincial budget is released. If the region is impacted, how- ever, taxes will not be increased, he said. "We're not raising taxes to accomodate the federal or provincial bud- gets. We'll cut services."

That's the expected refrain Bob Rae's NDP MPPs are singing to their constituents in an effort to justify why the coming provincial budget will have to be tough. Or it's to set us up to expect a worst-case bud- get so we'll be happy when they don't hit us so hard, as the federal Liberals did with their last fiasco. It's likely a bit of both. Unfortunately for them, the NDP have to call an election and have to present a bud- get. Politics being what it is, they'll present a rosy-cheeked budget then call an election based on that budget, hoping voters forget the spend -thrift ways that got the province in trouble in the first place. It will take a lot of restraint in govern- ment spending to let private business in this province fire up the engine of growth, sim- ply because government spending is out of control. Have you counted how many "spe- cial announcements" and "project funding programs" the NDP are spreading around the province? It's enough to make you think they're trying to buy your vote. It's the wrong tactic. Voters don't believe them any more. If they haven't got the message yet, we'll tell them again: Cut government spending and taxes. We're already up against the wall.

Jim Middlernim Executive Editor: Gord Maloohn Member of Ontario Corrommity Newspapers Association and Canadian Community Newspaper Association From the Desk of Gord Malcolm Council delegation refusal unacceptable I always thought the tie went to the runner but apparently that doesn't apply to local council - In this case, a gentleman wanted to speak to Pickering council but was refused the opportunity. yes, I know he missed the deadline for having his name placed on the agen- da and, yes, I know a special motion is required to hear an unscheduled delegation but in a three -three tie vote (mayor Wayne Arthurs was on holidays), the delegation should have had the right to speak It doesn't matter what the issue was, it doesn't matter if he spoke pre- viously to the issue, it doesn't matter if he did or did not have new infor- mation and it doesn't matter if amendments were or were not made to the motion, he should have had another kick at the can. In these days of "open and acces- sible" government, I find it unaccept- able that councillors wouldn'tsus- pend their ever -precious rules to allow this delegation. Counal can't make a proper dea, sion without hearing what the voters think about the issue. At least, that's what I think about this issue.

On the issue of reform- ing MPs' pensions, Prime Minister Jean Chretien caved into the the naked greed of Sheila Copps and her cronies and stands revealed as a hyp- ocrite. Despite the token changes to MPs' pension announced by the federal government, MPs' pen- sions will still have unlim- Ited protection against Inflation and will grow in value at a rate that's twice the legal maximum In the private sector. When the government is talking about raising To the ediiio`- the age for receiving ,th results. I don't imagine Mr. CPP pensions from 65 to 67, Liberal MPs have decided to give them- selves pensions at age 55. Even worse, MPs who have already qualified for pensions will still be allowed to quit their jobs and receive super huge pension payouts regard- less of their age. To give you an idea of just how cowardly the announced changes are, if Sheila Cops retires in three years, she will stand to collect $2.7 million until age 75. Under the old plan, she would have collected $3.3 million. There's no need to hold any tag days for Sheila. The MPs' pension plan is still gold-plated, will still cost the taxpayers mil- lions and is still an out- rage - That this MP pension fraud comes from a gov- ernment which piously preaches about fairness and about the need for sacrifice makes this insult- ing reform plan even worse.

Construction on the highway, which will travel on the south side of Lake Simcoe before meeting Hwy. 12, is expected to take at least 20 years before it will become reality, Chris Ricketts. the project manager of the environmental assess- ment study now under- way, told Durham region- al council. There are currently a "spaghetti" of possible routes through the north- ern portion of the region, but Ricketts said he wants to inform the pub- lic - especially affected landowners - the pre- ferred route as early as possible. We don't want to keep people in the dark too long," he said. Regional chairman Gary Herrema, an Uxbridge farmer, relin- quished the chair during the presentation because, he joked, he may be "one of the homeless people" the highway extension will create. Several councilors, while welcoming the transportation ministry project, were more inter- ested in learning about the extension of Highway 407, which Durham is trying to fast-track through the region.

OCSCO unites both large and small groups from community, women, ethnic, natives. trade unions and veterans' organizations on matters affecting the quality of life of the senior citizen com- munity. OCSCO would like to congratulate the govern- ment for the passage of Bill 173, an Act respecting Long -Term Care. The majority of seniors agree that we must push forward with reform and that the control of this reform must be in the hands of local communities. The one- stop shopping approach to both assessment and ser- vice delivery is essential for coordination and for the availability to the right services, at the right time and place by the right ser- vice provider.

Canadians have built into this country. The budget did not address measures that would help Canada put people back to work, such as job creation. Instead, Finance Minister Paul Martin is laying off more than 45,000 public ser. vants. The budget also did not do enough to increase revenues through the clo- sure of tax loopholes, which are particularly used by those corporations that made over $1 billion in profit last year. Finally, the budget did not address the issue of keeping Canada's debt in Canadian hands versus the hands of foreign countries. By maintaining the option of 20 per cent of RRSP that can be invested abroad as part of the tax exemption paid for by all Canadian tax payers, Mr. Martin is making us pay for shooting ourselves in the foot. The government has announced cuts of $7 bil- lion over 2 years in transfer payments which directly go toward covering costs of education, health and social services. These cuts will have drastic conse- quences for the social fab- ric of Canadian society. The reduction in transfer payment to the provinces, over $1 billion dollars in the first year alone for Ontario, will have devastat- ing effects on national stan- dards; regardless of Mr. Martin's attempted reas- surances we cannot count on the maintenance of uni- versality, accessibility and the other elements of our national health policy. These cuts will directly affect Canada's heahh care See BUDGEI'...Page 11 Our Fandy Cw" hes bow aw&W dest"ed to enson comfort for ON your apaaw needle.

OCSCO is very concerned by the negative impact the budget will have on the quality of life for all citizens in Canada. Today's seniors built the current social security system that the govern- ment is trying so hard to destroy. We feel that we have to speak out not only for ourselves but for the younger generation that is being directly attacked as well. With over $7 billion in cuts to to apportioned by the province in the next two years our education system will surely suffer. OCSCO cannot support the attack on universality and the move towards income based means test- ing on the eligibility for Old Age Security. The fed- eral government has made it abundantly clear that the next attack will be on pen- sions. This is a move toward a meaner society for the next generation, and one the seniors move- ment will fight very hard to stop.

The 77-64 loss to Mississauga's Westwood Wildcats eliminated the Pic►cering school from the competition. Westwood eventually reached the final before losing to Toronto's Eastern Commerce Saints. Flood nabs gold Swimming superstar Lisa Flood added another honor to her trophy room with a gold medal swim Monday at the Pan Am Games in Argentina. Flood, a bickering resi- dent and a double bronae medalist at last summer's Commonwealth Games, hit the wall in the 200 - metre breast stroke in a personal best time of 2:31:33. Fellow Canuck Guylaine Cloutier of Montmagny, Quebec, won the salver medal. Flood has been a mem- ber of Canada's national swim team for three years. Wolverinefighters spar for gold A trio of Blue Belt bat- tlers from Ajax's Wolverines The Kwon -Do Academy earned first Place finishes at the March 11 Han's International Tae Kwon - Do Championships in Etobiccce. Jamie MacKinnon, Russell McLean and Warren Flood all fought to top honors in the spar- ring Competition. 'They completely owned the zone," said Steve Wilson, the academy's head instructs: Wilson did not com- pete but was presented with a Master Instructor's plaque from tournament president Grand Master Han. By Herb Garbutt Special to the Bay News I The Dunbarton Spartans may have come away from the OFSAA AAA Boys Basketball Championships without a win but not without hope. "We're going to Luse three starters but we have a good returning group," said Spartan coach Mike Kramer after his team was eliminated by a 77-46 loss to Mississauga's Westwood Wildcats in Brampton on Thursday. "1 think (the OFSAA experience) will help and we're going to come back and defend our LOSSA title." Westwood, ranked M third in the 16 -team field, used great anticipation and ball control to roll up an 11-0 spread before Dunbarton could manage its first shot of the game. Mike Slean finally got the Spartans on the board with his first of five three - pointers. The Wildcats led 25-5 at the end of the opening quarter. Although the Spartans had early suc- cess in the second going for three -pointers Westwood quickly adjust- ed and took a 41-14 advantage into the half. The Spartans finally got some offense rolling in the final quarter. Although Westwood had three starters on the court, Dunbarton man- aged to outscore the Wildcats. Jeff Malcolm's drives to the basket gave Slean and Ben Madden more room to shoot. Slean led all scorers with 20 points, while Madden added nine and Malcolm had eight. Martin Harvey had seven points and Krist Popadopoulos had two. Dunbarton finished the season with a 18-4 record but Kramer said there was an obvious dif- ference among the tap - ranked teams. "We really had not played that kind of team before," he said. "The Toronto teams face this- all hisall the time. I'm sure the kids are disappointed right now but we're pleased we got as far as we did." The Spartans opened the tournament on Wednesday, dropping a 68-54 decision to the eighth-ranked St. Michael's Blue Raiders. The final 14 -point mar- gin was actually mislead- ing. Dunbarton over- came a 43-28 deficit, cut- ting the lead to just two with under five minutes to play. However, St. Mike's scored five straight points and then began to use the clock. That forced the Spartans into fouls to stop the clock and St. Mike's capi- talized, scoring 10 of their final 16 points from the free throw line. Ben Madden, who had a game -high 25 points, was flawless from outside and led the Spartans on an 8-2 run to finish the first quarter but Dunbarton still trailed 20- 17. In the second the Spartan shooters went cold. The Raiders used their height advantage (the team average was 67 and they were led by 6'8" centre Michael Zavershnik) to dominate the defensive boards and they were able to convert at the other end to take a 38-26 halftime lead Dunbarton began using more of its offen- sive weapons in the third. While the Raiders con- centrated on Madden, Slean drove to the hoop and the Spartans went to Harvey along the base- line to fashion a 13.3 run that helped put Dunbarton back in the game - A pair of baskets by Madden midway dumigh the fourth narrowed the lead to 52-50. However, the Spartans had to finish without Slean, who fouled out with -about four min- utes remaining. Shortly after, St. Mike's convert- ed onverted a couple of turnovers and then used the clock to their advantage. Joining Maddeii in double figures were Slean with 14 and Harvey with 11. Jag Dhillon and Sperling each had a pair. "A lot of people had doubt as to whether we should be here,' said Kramer, who's team was ranked 14th. "Me guys played an excellent game, though, end showed we belong."

Michael Boyer, of Boyer Pontiac Buick GMC Trucks in Pickering, com- pleted the purchase of the franchise and installed Ron Blizzard as the new gener- a manager. Blizzard, a firefighter for the Scarborough Fire hepartment. brings a love of the game to the table. Drafted by the Pickering Panthers in 1973, he chose to play college hockey with the Centennial Colts instead. A left winger for the "A" division Scarborough firefighter's club, Blizzard has now retired from playing to focus on his management duties. Blizzard says that Boyer, who has operated hif- dealership in Pickering fo-- the past eight years, saw buying the club as an opportunity to give some- thing back to the commu- nity that has supported him. The new GM adds the club "needs wholesale changes", pointing out the team wasn't doing well over the past few years. He also pledges to turn the team into a success story.
